    This Really Upsets Me...

    Well, unfortunately my betta, JJ, swam off to fish heaven today. He came down with a case of dropsy and I didn't even notice it until 2 days ago. I did what I could to make him comfortable, raised the temperature in the tank, water change, a salt bath, and then added some salt to the tank... But...

    Which Filter Is Best For 5 Gal?

    I have the Whisper 3i, a much smaller version of the 10i in my 5 gallon and it works fine. It doesn't take up too much room, but I'd still prefer a HOB filter. Oh well, one day when I upgrade I suppose! Good luck!

    Cory Cats Eating Betta Fins!

    How about if I upgraded to a 10 gallon tank, kept the betta and added a few more corys? I don't mind having a bigger tank - but I'd rather not have the extra responsibility of managing two separate tanks... I can get a nice 10 gallon set up for pretty cheap.

    Rubber Anemone Plants...

    Yeah, I know anemones aren't freshwater, but I just liked the way it looked, and it's hard to find soft ornaments that won't ruin the bettas fins. As for the marbles, I added them in hopes the betta might play with them or roll them around, but in finding that he could care less I just added...

    Rubber Anemone Plants...

    I purchased a small ornament to go along with the fake grass plants in my 5.5 gallon tank housing JJ, my male betta. The ornament is a small rock with 4 small rubber anemonies attached to it with lots of tentacles. I was hoping the betta would like it, use it maybe to rest his fins on, hide in...
